So sorry I haven't been able to play along in this week's amuse-bouche! I've been busy teaching AP classes around Texas though. Two more classes today… YAY! It's my birthday today and I can't wait to be around stamping people all day! So fun!

This is one of my cards from my Holiday Classics class that I taught this week here. I *love* this stamp. It's called Winter Scene and it is a cling stamp. A Muse released several cling stamps for AP 2010. I think they are awesome! Love everything about them, especially the clean images. They ink up wonderfully!

The winter scene is white embossed on A Muse's navy cardstock. A Muse now has MANY colors of solid white core 8.5×11 cardstock (not to mention the BEST pattern cardstock around!). YIPPEE. I love that. Now I can make whatever size cards I want!

WOHOO! It's mid-week of A*Muse*A*Palooza (AP) 2010! I hope you've been checking out the A Muse News blog and the rest of the Creative Team for some wonderful amuse-bouche (sampling of this year's AP 2010 images!). I've been busy prepping for more AP classes this week. I'll be at Memory Depot in Austin tomorrow night (Thursday) and also Saturday – it's my birthday Saturday – hope you can join me for fun stamping time!

Okay, on to the card already… well, I quickly made this card because this image is the image that I'm going to use for my holiday cards this year. I think. 🙂 I'm all about snowflakes. And this one is perfect.

It was really hard to get the photo on this one but hopefully you can see well enough. It's a clear card with the images stamped in white stazon. The inside has a strip of Sky Blue paper (love that A Muse has so many colors in 8.5×11 now!) to put a handwritten message.

Yesterday was another full day of stamping over at Memory Depot, here in Austin! This round of AP, I decided to teach some classes where we make some stuff that not only give inspiration but also can be used… I'm all about making stuff to give away… as you all well know… 🙂

It was fun to see old friends, meet some new ones. Special thanks to those ladies from Dallas and Houston… thanks so much for making the drive!

The first class was Tag, You're It where we made 36 tags for the upcoming holiday season!

And then the 2nd class was "It's all in the PRESENTation" where we made gifts and boxes and such things. My favorite things, of course!

I'm so excited! A*Muse*A*Palooza 2009 starts tomorrow! Want to get out of this crazy heat wave and make something crafty? Think Cool. Think A/C. 🙂 Think of it as Christmas in July! Join me at one of these classes. Call the store, if you are interested!
